Hon Speaker of Parliament Alban Sumana Kingsford Bagbin. The plea is for assistance in completing the abundant market project for the Nadowli community.
The current market, a vital source of revenue for the District Assembly Initiated by former DCE Hon Wing Commander Eric Dakurah in 2008 under H. E former President John Agyekum Kufuor has stalled and become a safety hazard. The project’s incomplete structures now pose a significant risk to traders and shoppers.
Challenges Faced by Market Women includes
- Lack of shade forces market women to endure scorching sun or use basins as makeshift umbrellas during rain.
- Weak walls and incomplete structures create hazardous conditions.
- Traders now refuse to pay market tolls due to the Assembly’s inability to complete the market.
The community urgently needs a safe and functional market. The Honorable Assembly member’s appeal seeks to revitalize the stalled project, ensuring traders and shoppers have a conducive environment.
By supporting this initiative, the community can:
- Enhance trader safety and well-being.
- Boost local economy through improved market conditions.
- Strengthen community development.
He used the opportunity to make a clarion call on all stakeholders to join hands in ensuring that our market women and men have a safe and befitting market structures.
Below is a full vido of the uncompleted building of the market.
